Message-Id: <mailto:199605082130.QAA25382@library.wustl.edu> Date: Wed, 8 May 1996 17:05:21 -0400 From: Bob Henneberger <mailto:BHENNEBE@UGA.CC.UGA.EDU> Subject: Document scanning project To: Multiple recipients of list IMAGELIB
The University of Georgia Libraries has embarked on a project to provide Georgia government documents in digital form through the Internet. Documents are scanned using a Xerox scanner (20 pages/minute, duplex). Bibliographic data for each title is entered and indexed. Additional indexed access is provided by portions of text from the documents which are run through OCR software - all words in this text will point to the record. Images of the pages are attached to the record,ranging from 2 to 1500 pages per record. We use OCLC software as the search engine (SiteSearch). Our address is: http://www.galileo.peachnet.edu Choose the GALILEO RESOURCES option, then the GOVERNMENT PUBLICATIONS option. Other Galileo options are available only to Georgia institutions. All comments are welcome.
